3 Functions and features 3.1 Application area The unit monitors the flow and the temperature of liquid and gaseous media 3.2 Flow and temperature monitoring with output S1 The unit detects the flow velocity and the current medium temperature It links the two measured signals (logical function: AND) and switches output S1: output S1 flow ≥ switch point SP1 and medium temperature ≥ switch point SP2...
4 Installation Using process adapters the unit can be adapted to different process connections • Adapters have to be ordered separately as accessories A correct fit of the unit and ingress resistance of the connection are only ensured using ifm adapters • For small flow rates ifm adapter blocks are available 4.1 Installation location General...
4.2 Sources of interference in the pipe system Components integrated in the pipes, bends, valves, reductions, etc lead to turbu- lence of the medium This affects the function of the unit Recommendation: Adhere to the distances between sensor and sources of interference: 5...10 x D 3...5 x D...
5 Electrical connection The unit must be connected by a qualified electrician The national and international regulations for the installation of electrical equipment must be adhered to Voltage supply to EN 50178, SELV, PELV ► Disconnect power ► Connect the unit as follows: 1 BN 4 BK 2 WH...
7 Set-up and settings for water (For media other than water → 8.1: Low flow adjustment). ► Switch on the supply voltage > All LEDs light and go out again step by step During this time the output S1 is closed (if configured as normally open) The unit is in the operating mode ►...
7.2 High flow adjustment (optional) The unit determines the existing flow as normal flow and adapts the display repre- sentation (all LEDs except the switch point LED light green) ► Let the normal flow circulate in the installation ► Press the pushbutton and keep it pressed >...
After LED 9 has been reached the cycle starts again at LED 0 The LED which is constantly lit (2nd digit) moves on by one position to the right (if pushbutton is used) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 [x10°C] 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 [x10°C]...
> After 10 s the current setting is displayed: LEDs 59 light orange (= outputs normally open) > After approx 15 s LEDs 04 flash orange ► Release the pushbutton The outputs are changed to normally closed operation For a new changeover repeat the operation 8.3 Restore the factory setting (reset) ►...
9 Error during adjustment If no adjustment is possible, all LEDs flash red The unit then passes into the operating mode with unchanged values Possible cause /aid: ► Read chapter 4 Installation Error during installation Check whether all requirements have been met The difference between maximum flow and ►...
